    The Hawk would be a name to make anyone else sound more swift than impactful, but for Jackson it just made me think of how quickly his hand could swoop in to make someone literally fall asleep

    Hearns hurt the likes of Duran, Leonard x2, Hagler, Roldan, Benitez, Cuevas and many others. GGG hurt Macklin, Curtis "The ATG" Stevens and Rubio.

    Sure thing, virtual clown.

    Same - day weigh ins were introduced in the mid eighties, stupid f*uck, so Hawk and Clellan did clearly benefit.

    But you do have a point about Hearns.

    Julian Jackson . He had frightening power in both hands .

    The jury is still out on Golovkin , and I don't think he deserved to be in this list with the other 3 .

    Jackson. He had a different level of power.

    GGG's shots are clubbing hurtful punches. Jacksons snapped so hard it was lights out. Thunderous shots.

    Jackson and McClellan are the two hardest-hitting middleweights, in my opinion.

    JACKSON

    It isn't even CLOSE.

    That man put men to sleep, SLEEP.

    Has GGG ever put anyone to sleep? Nope.

    Jackson was always able to find that sweet spot, while Tommy was the most explosive of this list. Not far behind Tommy was G-Man, tall, explosive, puncher like Tommy, but I for some reason liked him combination punching better. I guess he'd sit on his punches more, but some of the most brutal ko's your going to see cuz his opponents were usually out by the time he'd finish the combinations. GGG seems to walk his opponents down, but ironically as he has stated himself he has never rushed for a ko to happen. I think he is equally deadly as any of the punchers here, he's shown to be a devastating one punch ko fighter when he has needed it, not just a fighter that wears you down.

    Mcclellan would have knocked out Jacobs last night. And if you want to criticize someone for fighting dogs, how do you feel about cops killing unarmed blacks? That's ok right? yeah, I suppose it is.
